Send us a text

In this episode of *2 Giants Goofballs: New York Giants News & Updates,* Drew and Rob dive into the latest news surrounding the New York Giants and the NFL. They start by discussing the recent comments made by Russell Wilson, which indicate that his future may be set with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Wilson expressed his desire to stay with the Steelers long-term, emphasizing his excitement about the potential of the team and his strong relationship with head coach Mike Tomlin and general manager Omar Khan. While the Steelers are keeping their options open at quarterback, Wilson’s statements suggest he’s committed to the team’s vision, potentially taking him off the market for teams like the Giants that might have been eyeing him as an option.  

The focus then shifts to Dru Phillips, a rookie standout who quietly made a significant impact for the Giants. Despite Malik Nabers grabbing most of the attention, Phillips emerged as one of the top-performing defensive rookies in the league. With impressive grades across the board from Pro Football Focus, Phillips proved to be a valuable addition to the secondary, ranking among the best in run defense and coverage. The Giants have found a cornerstone piece in Phillips, and his development could be key in addressing their secondary needs moving forward.  

Drew and Rob also cover the latest front-office moves around the league, noting that the Las Vegas Raiders have opted to pass on Giants executive Brandon Brown for their general manager position, instead hiring John Spytek from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Brown remains a critical part of the Giants' front office, and his role in shaping the team's future remains intact for now.  

Finally, the episode provides an in-depth review of the Giants' off-ball linebackers from the 2024 season. Bobby Okereke continued to be a reliable force, leading the group with solid performances in all facets of the game, while Micah McFadden showed flashes of potential with his pass-rushing ability but struggled in coverage. Rookies and depth players like Darius Muasau, Ty Summers, and Dyontae Johnson contributed in rotational roles, with varying levels of success. The Giants' linebacker corps presents some solid pieces, but coverage issues and depth concerns remain heading into the offseason.  

As the Giants prepare for the next phase of their rebuild, addressing these key positions will be critical. With Dru Phillips emerging as a young star and questions surrounding linebacker depth and quarterback options, the Giants' offseason plans are starting to take shape.

In this episode of 2 Giants Goofballs: New York Giants News & Updates, Drew and Rob dive into the latest headlines surrounding the Giants, including coaching hires, potential draft strategies, and offseason roster moves. The Giants have officially hired Marquand Manuel as their new defensive backs coach, adding a wealth of experience to their coaching staff. Manuel, who played defensive back in the NFL from 2002 to 2009, brings a diverse coaching resume that includes stints with the Seahawks, Falcons, Eagles, and Jets. 

The hosts also analyze the Tennessee Titans' plans with the first overall pick in the NFL Draft. Titans President Chad Brinker and new GM Mike Borgonzi have stated they won’t pass on a generational talent, leading to speculation about whether they will select a quarterback or consider trading down. If Tennessee passes on a QB, it could open the door for the Giants to land one of the top prospects, such as Shedeur Sanders or Cam Ward. Drew and Rob discuss the potential for the Giants to trade up and what it could mean for the franchise moving forward.

Another hot topic in the episode is Jermaine Eluemunor’s social media recruitment of Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey. Following Baltimore’s playoff loss, Humphrey hinted at potential changes to the Ravens’ roster. Eluemunor responded on social media by suggesting Humphrey consider joining the Giants, sparking speculation among fans. Cowboys star Micah Parsons chimed in, questioning why Humphrey would leave Lamar Jackson for New York, but Eluemunor remained steadfast in his recruitment efforts. The hosts break down Humphrey’s impressive resume, which includes four Pro Bowl selections and a standout performance last season, and debate whether a move to the Giants is realistic.

The Giants’ rookies continue to make waves as Malik Nabers and Tyrone Tracy Jr. were named to the PFWA All-Rookie Team. Nabers was the top wide receiver selected, while Tracy Jr. earned recognition as the second-best rookie running back behind the Buccaneers’ Bucky Irving. However, Tyler Nubin and Dru Phillips were notably absent from the list, which Drew and Rob argue is a snub considering their strong rookie campaigns.

Brian Burns has been recognized as the most improved Giant by Pro Football Focus, with significant improvements in both pass-rushing and run defense. Burns recorded 61 pressures and 42 defensive stops, showcasing his growth and potential to become a dominant force for the Giants. The hosts discuss how his development could shape the defense next season.

As the draft approaches, Mel Kiper has projected Shedeur Sanders to the Giants in his latest mock draft. Kiper believes this scenario would be ideal for the Giants, who are in desperate need of a franchise quarterback after moving on from Daniel Jones and with Drew Lock entering free agency. Sanders' impressive accuracy and leadership could provide a much-needed boost to the Giants’ struggling offense.

Finally, the episode covers the departure of defensive lineman Boogie Basham, who has signed a reserve/futures deal with the Carolina Panthers. Drew and Rob discuss what this means for the Giants’ defen

In the latest episode of Hard Knocks: Offseason, the focus remains on the New York Giants. The episode begins with a recap of Episode 1 and highlighting the tension around Xavier McKinney and Joe Schoen's reaction to the new cap number, which may influence McKinney's future with the team. Jerome Henderson discusses McKinney during the combine, mentioning a potential offer that might be off the table soon.

At the combine press conference, Joe Schoen addresses the media and reflects on Adam Schefter's report about Saquon Barkley. Schoen practices responses about Barkley's franchise tag situation, revealing some lingering resentment from past negotiations. The topic of McKinney arises again, showing a more positive tone compared to Barkley. Discussions about potential quarterback trades are also planned but remain vague.

The scouting team evaluates several players, including Jayden Daniels, who struggles with recalling plays during his interview. In contrast, Drake Maye impresses with his mental acuity. JJ McCarthy's detailed play diagram and Caleb Williams' resilience are noted. Marvin Harrison Jr.'s calm demeanor and Rome Odunze's leadership qualities are highlighted. Malik Nabers stands out for his competitiveness, with Brandon Brown emphasizing his unique value to the team.

Joe Schoen continues to discuss strategy at the combine, including a potential trade with the Patriots and comparisons between players like Brian Burns and Wilkins. The episode captures lighter moments during the 40-time event, with jokes about running speeds and a standout performance by Xavier Worthy.

The ongoing saga of Saquon Barkley's contract is revisited, with Schoen acknowledging Barkley's likely higher offers elsewhere but expressing a desire to retain him for his legacy with the Giants. The episode ends with a preview of further developments in the Barkley story, promising more drama in the next episode.

Welcome back to the channel! Today, we're diving into the latest drama and storylines surrounding the New York Giants, as teased in Episode 2 of Hard Knocks: Offseason. 

We're all curious about the phone call regarding Saquon Barkley's decision teased in the trailer. What went down? We need answers. Additionally, we want to know more about the Brian Burns trade—how did the Giants pull off this major move and what went on behind the scenes?

The talent evaluation process at the combine is another intriguing aspect. Who did the Giants have their eyes on that they didn’t end up drafting? And who were they less impressed by? This could provide some great insight into the team’s strategy. We also need more details on how the Giants approached free agency, especially with their new linemen.

Former GM Michael Lombardi didn’t hold back after the Hard Knocks premiere, saying, "If you don’t know who you are, how the hell do you find players out there that can fix it?... There should be a pyramid of opinions... They really don’t know who they are.” This critique raises questions about the Giants' decision-making process.

Malik Nabers was caught on video throwing thousands of dollars at a strip club. Is this just a young player letting loose, or is it something more serious? Chuck Pagano weighed in, urging Nabers to stay focused and available for the team. Jeff Diamond, former Vikings GM, warned of a potential train wreck if the Giants don’t start strong this season, highlighting the pressure on key players and coaches.

CBS Sports ranked Daniel Jones as the 8th most clutch QB, noting his steady performance in critical moments. Despite doubts, he’s shown he can deliver under pressure. Dexter Lawrence was highlighted as one of the best defensive tackles by CBS Sports, noting his impressive stats and impact on the game.

NFL.com’s Eric Edholm suggested that Brian Burns could be the Giants’ MVP, especially with Thibodeaux and Lawrence forming a formidable defense. Meanwhile, Jalin Hyatt’s bulking up strategy involves a lot of PB&Js! He’s now up to 185 lbs. Will this make a significant difference in his game?

The Giants fell from 6th place in ESPN’s Under-24 Rankings due to some disappointing performances from recent high draft picks. However, they still have promising young talent. Bleacher Report suggests the Giants should trade for Steelers RB Najee Harris to replace Saquon Barkley. Harris has been a consistent 1,000-yard rusher and could be a great addition.

Alex Ballentine of Bleacher Report explores whether tanking might be the best strategy for the Giants, given their current challenges and the competitive NFC East. The Giants are also favorites to sign former Broncos safety Justin Simmons. Would he be a good fit for the team?

Join Drew & Rob on 2 Giants Goofballs: A New York Giants Podcast as we break down Episode 1 of Hard Knocks Offseason, premiering on 7/2 at 9 PM on HBO and the Max streaming service. We discuss the key moments and insights from the episode and share our reactions to what the show revealed about the Giants' offseason.

Key Topics: 

Joe Schoen talks about his journey in the NFL, starting as a scouting assistant in Carolina, and how he used to eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches because they were cheap. The show paints him as a blue-collar guy who doesn't listen to outside noise and isn't familiar with sports radio channels.

The show refers to Daniel Jones as a "$40M question mark" and discusses his injury issues. Schoen emphasizes the need for a contingency plan while showing a montage of Jones working out to recover from his ACL injury. Despite the challenges, Schoen expresses his commitment to Jones, albeit with plenty of colorful language.

The episode delves into the Giants' defensive legacy, highlighting legendary DCs Tom Landry and Bill Belichick. They discuss Wink Martindale's departure and feature Dexter Lawrence praising Bowen's defenses against the rush. Schoen and Daboll are enthusiastic about improving the rushing defense, and Bowen outlines his vision, emphasizing the importance of the ILB position and questioning the roles of Boogie Basham and Ryder Anderson.

Joe Schoen attends the East West Shrine Bowl and talks about the importance of seeing all the players. He catches up with Frank Gore and reflects on scouting Devin Singletary. Schoen also discusses the challenges of managing Saquon's workload and the data suggesting RBs drop off at 27.

At the Senior Bowl, Schoen meets with Dan Morgan, GM of the Panthers, and jokes about trading up to the 6th pick. Morgan inquires about trading for Brian Burns, and Schoen humorously references his 93-year-old grandmother's fondness for Notre Dame QB Sam Hartman.

The show opens with a focus on the impending Barkley decision. The Giants analyze free agent RBs and discuss the possibility of tagging and trading Barkley. Schoen mentions letting Barkley test the market and come back with his best offer. There is a candid discussion with Mara about the impact of not having Barkley and the potential of drafting or signing another RB. The episode highlights Schoen's reluctance to franchise tag Barkley, given the crowded FA RB class and his age.

Next week will cover the NFL Combine.

Giants Release an Hour Special From Their “Night with Legends”

The New York Giants recently released an hour-long special from their event "Night with Legends," which took place on June 20 at Madison Square Garden. This event featured appearances from all living Giants legends, celebrating the rich history and legacy of the team.

ESPN Report: Coaches All Wanted to Leave Daboll?

ESPN's Jordan Raanan reported that several coaches, including Wink Martindale and Mike Kafka, were unhappy working under head coach Brian Daboll last season. The former coaches cited excessive finger-pointing and a lack of accountability from Daboll. 

Quotes from last season's staff include: “It was like ‘Are we on the same team? It sure doesn't feel like it,’” and “We were all trying to get out of there.” Reportedly, Martindale even cursed out Daboll in his office before quitting. While there are always two sides to every story, the volume of complaints suggests Daboll was at least partly at fault. However, recent reports from OTAs indicate Daboll seems more relaxed, suggesting he may have learned from these issues.

Sports Illustrated: Andrew Thomas is a Potential First-Time Pro Bowler in 2024

Andrew Thomas, who has previously been named a Second Team All-Pro, is being touted by Sports Illustrated as a potential first-time Pro Bowler in 2024. Despite battling injuries last season, Thomas was still a standout performer on the Giants' offensive line.

Tommy Devito’s Agent Sean Stellato Meets with the Pope

In an unexpected twist, Adam Schefter reported that Tommy Devito's agent, Sean Stellato, had an audience with the Pope. The details of how Stellato secured the meeting are unclear, but he presented the Pope with a custom football bearing the Pope’s coat of arms. It's a humorous aside to think the Pope might be a Saints fan

CBS Sports Projects Giants’ Malik Nabers as 3rd Most Productive Rookie WR

Chris Trapasso of CBS Sports ranked Malik Nabers as the third most productive rookie wide receiver for the 2024 season. Trapasso praised Nabers' explosiveness and ability to track long passes, drawing comparisons to Brandon Aiyuk and CeeDee Lamb. He noted that Nabers' potential production could be impacted by the Giants' quarterback situation but expressed confidence in his abilities. Trapasso's top five rookie WR projections are Marvin Harrison Jr., Rome Odunze, Malik Nabers, Ladd McConkey (Chargers), and Xavier Worthy.

ESPN Says Giants Have Worst Roster in the NFL

ESPN analysts Mike Clay, Aaron Schatz, and Seth Walder collectively ranked the Giants as having the worst roster in the NFL. Mike Clay highlighted concerns in the secondary with the departures of Xavier McKinney and Adoree’ Jackson. The team will rely on significant improvements from young players like Deonte Banks, Cor’Dale Flott, Nick McCloud, Tre Hawkins III, and rookie Dru Phillips. At safety, Jason Pinnock and a combination of second-round rookie Tyler Nubin, Dane Belton, and Jalen Mills are expected to step up.

DJ organized an off-season workout in NC, taking several teammates with him for both training and bonding. Joining Jones were quarterbacks Drew Lock and Tommy DeVito, wide receivers  Slayton, Nabers, Wan'Dale Robinson, Hyatt, Ford-Wheaton, and Dennis Houston, tight ends  Bellinger, Theo Johnson, and Lawrence Cager, and running back Dante Miller. Beyond their football drills, the group engaged in team-building activities, including jet skiing, a moment captured and shared on Twitter. This workout tradition dates back to 2011 when Eli Manning initiated it, bridging the gap between OTAs and training camp.
Giants rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers didn't shy away from calling out Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs during a Bleacher Report interview, saying he can't wait to match up against him. Diggs responded on Twitter, referencing the Cowboys' dominance over the Giants with a taunting message. Nabers retorted with a coffin emoji, intensifying the rivalry. The Giants face the Cowboys in weeks 4 and 13 this season. While Diggs is recovering from an ACL tear, Daron Bland has emerged as a strong contender for the Cowboys' top cornerback spot. The burgeoning rivalry echoes sentiments expressed by last year's Giants first-round pick Deonte Banks, who vocally celebrated victories over the Commanders.
The "Hard Knocks" trailer featuring the New York Giants offered some intriguing insights. Giants GM Joe Schoen was seen discussing Saquon Barkley's contract situation, stating, "Can you give us your word on that or are you not going to give us a chance?" This followed reports that the Giants never made Barkley an offer during the offseason. The trailer also captured Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll deliberating a trade for Brian Burns, with Schoen noting the high cost: "We would have to trade, like, two twos, and then you’d have to pay him $28-$29 million." Ultimately, the Giants acquired Burns for a second-round pick, a fifth-round pick, and a swap of fifth-round picks. The trailer hinted at the Falcons' interest in trading down, sparking curiosity about what the Giants might have gained if they had traded the sixth pick.
The Giants have opened their first training camp session to the public on July 24, continuing through multiple dates in late July and early August. Joint practices with the Lions on August 5 and 6 will also be accessible. Fans can look forward to giveaways, autographs, and various activities. While attendance is free, tickets are required and will be available soon on the Giants' official website.
With Darren Waller’s retirement, tight ends Lawrence Cager and rookie Theo Johnson have stepped up. ESPN’s Jordan Raanan reported that both players received first-team reps during spring practices. Head coach Brian Daboll praised Cager, calling him “probably one of the most improved players throughout the offseason.” Cager's increased speed and understanding of the system have been highlighted, suggesting he could play a significant role this season.
Pro Football Focus ranked the Giants' defensive line 18th in the NFL. Dexter Lawrence's dominant pass-rushing skills set him apart as a unique nose tackle. The addition of Brian Burns in th

Pro Football Focus ranked Joe Judge as the sixth worst head coaching hire in NFL history. Judge’s tenure with the Giants was marred by a 10-23 record and a particularly infamous play during his final game in 2021. With the Giants backed up against their own goal line, Judge called for consecutive quarterback sneaks on 2nd-and-11 and 3rd-and-9, showcasing a lack of confidence in his offense. Although reports suggested his job was secure before Week 17, Judge was fired after this game. His issues were compounded by a poor roster and forced decisions, such as having Jason Garrett as his offensive coordinator, and overall, Judge was not ready for the head coaching role.

Isaiah Simmons is set to see a role change according to Titans' defensive coordinator Shane Bowen. Simmons, previously used as a linebacker in passing downs, will now play nickel on first and second downs and a "MONEY" role on third downs. This shift aims to better utilize his coverage and blitzing skills.

Daniel Bellinger and Jack Stoll attended Tight End University, an event started by Greg Olsen, Travis Kelce, and George Kittle in 2021. This is Bellinger's third consecutive year attending. Notably, Theo Johnson was absent from the event.

The Giants' "Helmet Catch" was named the franchise's best play during the "Nights with Legends" event celebrating their 100th season.

ESPN’s Aaron Schatz suggested that the Giants should sign defensive lineman Lawrence Guy to address their defensive depth. While tight end is a need after Darren Waller’s retirement, the defensive line and cornerback positions are seen as more pressing. Guy, a 13-year NFL veteran, could provide depth despite a lower PFF grade and being 34 years old.

Justin Pugh believes 2024 is a make-or-break year for Daniel Jones. In an interview with SiriusXM NFL Radio, Pugh stated that Jones must prove he is worth his $47 million cap hit. Pugh highlighted Jones' efforts in OTAs and his need to perform well, especially with the Giants having an out after this season.

Pro Football Focus ranked the Giants' receivers as one of the worst in the NFL, placing them 28th. The performance of rookie Malik Nabers is crucial, and the loss of Saquon Barkley and Darren Waller has negatively impacted the team's outlook. The additions of Nabers and Theo Johnson provide some hope, but there are concerns about the downgrade from Barkley to Devin Singletary.

SI’s Connor Orr made a bold prediction that Drew Lock could end the season as the Giants' starting quarterback. If Daniel Jones struggles, Orr believes Lock could take over, especially given Jones' injury history and inconsistent performance last season.

CBS Sports’ Cody Benjamin listed Brian Daboll on the hot seat, despite his Coach of the Year win in 2022. Daboll's challenge is to revive Daniel Jones' performance and secure commitment from a team that has not had coaching stability since Tom Coughlin.

Former Giants center Greg Larson passed away. A sixth-round pick out of Minnesota in 1961, Larson spent 13 seasons with the Giants, appearing in 179 games and starting 153. He was a 1968 Pro Bowler and missed only three game
